Marty Bamburg (pictured) and his wife, Tracy, are the owners of Bayou Bounce. They recently opened a facility in Bossier City to accommodate private parties.

Bayou Bounce now has a facility in Bossier City to accommodate private parties.

For the last eight years, Bayou Bounce has provided large, inflatable jumps, which kids climb in and jump around, for parties and events, but they have never had a place specifically for people to come and have a party.

When the rain washed away lots of business for owners Marty and Tracy Bamburg in 2009, they decided to be proactive and found a place where they can host jump parties indoors.

"Instead of going with a huge place, we decided to do a smaller place with three jumps for private parties," he said. "We also let people and their guests bring their own food and drinks."

Marty Bamburg said he's heard from customers that similar businesses locally have several parties going at the same time, where children from other parties will get in each other's way.

"People like the fact that they can do what they want," he said. "They don't have to worry about sharing."
